Implementing the LASO model: development of a pilot online course at the Faculty of Engineering and Technology, University of Botswana
(Emerald http://www.emeraldinsight.com, 2004)
This paper reports on the process of developing a blended online engineering course at the Faculty of Engineering and Technology of the University of Botswana. It presents the actual development process in terms of its ...
Development of a mathematical model for reactive power transmission costs in electric power systems
(IEEE http://www.saiee.org.za/publications/2008/sept/99-3-4.pdf, 2008)
The paper gives detailed analyses to help determine the increase in production costs due to the transmission
of reactive power. On the basis of that and with due consideration to the cost of VARS compensation equipment, ...
Cyclic stress–strain behavior of conventional grain and ultrafine grain nickel under biaxial straining
(Elsevier http://www.linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S135964620800064X, 2008)
Results are presented on the effects of biaxial straining on the cyclic stress–strain response of ultrafine grain nickel (grain
size 260 nm) and conventional grain nickel (grain size 50 lm) over a range of effective ...
Information system based implementation of Semester-to-Semester progression at University of Botswana
(http://ijedict.dec.uwi.edu/viewarticle.php?id=555., 2008)
In August 2002, the University of Botswana changed from a yearlong to a semester based academic system. However, the progression regulations were not be fully implemented on the information system mainly due to problems ...
Accessing applications from multiple file servers in a computer network
(Science Publications http://www.doaj.org/doaj?func=abstract&id=116222, 2005)
This study proposes a technique of accessing applications from multiple file servers in a computer network that caters for a large user community. The technique is a step towards creating a computer network system that is ...
Assessment of ICT-based course delivery for mechanical engineering students: a case study
(http://www.ais.up.ac.za/digi/docs/oladiran_paper.pdf, 2009)
During the first semester of 2007/2008 academic session at the University of Botswana (UB), some mechanical
engineering courses were delivered using a blended method i.e. online resource (eLearning) and traditional face
to ...
Application of the method of D-partitioning for stability of control systems with variable parameters
(University of Botswana, www.ub.bw, 2007)
By the turn of the century, Botswana will be 34 years old as an independent nation. Reflecting on the past, is a background of tremendous achievements from a socio-economic development perspective. The achievements could ...
Educatin and training of engineers: a case study
(University of Botswana, 2000)
Engineering and training play an important role in the technical, economic and social progress of society.A number of factors influence the education and training of engineers, from the nature and form of curricular to ...
An algorithm for the determination of feedback coefficients of a state variable feedback control system
(University of Botswana, http://www.ub.bw, 2000)
This paper describes a new method of determining the feedback coefficients in a state variable feedback system, given the closed loop transfer function, making use of the transfer function between different and relevant ...
Analysis of dielectric loaded resonator dual-mode filter
(University of Botswana, 2006)
A dielectric loaded rectangular cavity for the design and realisation of different elliptic function filters topologies is presented. The 3-D Transmission Linee modelling method (TLM) is applied to the analysis of the ...
